Number 4 in the Scotland Street series, this is yet another warm, clever and gently paced read. The characters are recognisable as 'real life' people, but quirky enough to be very interesting. I love all the subtle commentary on life, relationships, philosophy and Edinburgh. If you haven't read the others, do start at the first book "44 Scotland street".
